Kindly advice me whether should I take isotretinoin sotret or try other medicines.Your advice is greatly appreciated.
First of all i would like to know whether you are male or female.
Isotretinoin can be used both in males as well as female.
The side effects vary in males and females.
The most important side effect is harm to the fetus during pregnancy.
Let me know if you have any other doubt.
